(sorry for double post,mistakenly sent it before finish >.<)
Yavanna is my personal favourite of your gallery. You draw nice characters, but I think you would be able to make it even better.. Your works are often kinda empty. The person, or persons, are standing in the middle of the pic and lots of empty space around them. If you concentrate on characters only, draw them bigger. That gives you a chance for special details too.
Good luck and keep this up.

With practice, I bet you will be amazing in couple years. I like your gallery, it looks like a good start for a new talent. 18

Hi Caitlynn, you have some good drawing here, and some great ideas, I listen to a lot of Loreena mckennitt when I work, lisa Gerrard too, and Loreena has a new album out soon. I think all you need is practice, I would suggest that you work from some reference pictures, and concentrate more on the detail, try getting a close up of an eye, look at each tiny line and fleck, there are no solid lines to the face or eyes, there is only shapes and forms, get yourself a glossy magazine and use one of the large model shots, you'll find in time that your characters will come to life, the same with the body, although you have the general proportions right, all the little lumps and bumps need to be included if you want them to look more life like.
draw as much and as often as you can, try and learn from each piece, and above all make sure you draw what you see, not what you think you see, if you would like to chat more, e-mail me, I would love to help you if I can.

i actually like alot of your drawings. You have a bit to learn such as if you do dark backgrounds do tiny spirals or cross hatching, you know stuff like that and to do darker shaded people and more outlined. whew a bit critical 16 but truely i love you stuff and i see alot of potential in you. i also delve a little into paganism and such and listen to loreena mckennitt religiously 10. happy drawing!
